I am a big Grand Cherokee fan. I have a '21 GC Trailhawk. Bought it in the US new in Feb. '21 for $42.6k (discounted from a $49k MSRP). It is shocking how much one would have to pay for this new Summit in the UK. I understand that there are differences (the Trailhawk is a lower trim, the '21 is the older WKII platform, the new WL platform is nicer with more features). However, 85K pounds is breathtaking.....
I have to agree with most of what you said, but what about reliability, Range Rover's aren't exactly known for there's and I've seen a few new one's lately where panel gaps weren't even and swage lines didn't align either.
Not the first vehicle to have a McIntosh stereo fitted. Early 2000s, premium spec Subaru Outbacks had McIntosh systems fitted. Overall, the new Grand Cherokee doesn't impress.
It impressed those that bought it for sure. But I'm sure you've driven both of these and put them through their paces? For practicality, the Jeep has it all.
£85,000 for a Jeep if I could have a BMW X5, Audi Q7, Volvo Xc90, Range Rover Sport, etc. I do not know what the Americans were smoking?! But this is ridiculous. A KIA for half that price is better!
I’ve driven all of those cars above. Picked up a 2015 Jeep Cherokee for a 5th of the price of my Range Rover and it was just as comfortable, just as capable. Silent cabin, feels like driving a cloud etc. everything felt substantial and well made. The steering wheel! The softest leather I’ve ever felt! I’m a convert. Would recommend a Jeep to anyone
Now don't get me wrong, Land Rover products (from experience) are temperamental and expensive to keep running. Buuuut I don't think JEEP exactly has the best track record when it comes to reliability
FCA must be smoking something with this car. The price is ridiculous, but the lack of diesel powertrain means hardly anyone will be interested in Europe.
Soon as I saw this my eyes was drawn straight to the Gaps like in the hood ,the doors the boot etc is just to big it don’t look well built quality control and design .
tbh i only liked the 2000’s grand cherokee, this is a disappointment. also no one in the right mind would buy a jeep over a range rover or an audi, especially when the jeep is more expensive!!! great video💪.
You should leave Europe to buy a cheap true Jeep which the total opposite of whatever featured in this review. The V8 hemi engine on Jeep has the power to take you to the moon.
Took a brand new 2023 Grand Cherokee off road last month. Within 3hrs off-roading the infotainment screen stopped working and none of the electric windows would work. That was when I remembered I was technically driving a Fiat. I had to turn it off and on a few times, before it reset itself. Fiat, I mean Chrysler should look into it.
Which would you buy: a Jeep Grand Cherokee, BMW X5 or Range Rover Sport?
Alfa romeo stelvio
Jeep
I bought a Grand Cherokee.
2024 Range Rover Sport.

I have a WK2 summit in the UK & I love the brand. However; £85k however is absurd!

Is the McIntosh an industry standard? Never heard of it before today.

In my country a full spec jeep is the price of the base model of each of the those competitors except for the Volvo
RR sport top spec 115 k

It's funny that we tested these exact vehicles, even threw in an Outback, and for the money the Jeep is the better buy.
Are you smoking I've owned one of these they are million light years better than Kia. Kia is garbage
Why the hell car manufacturers use piano black?? I don't get it...
It’s summit reserve top spec model 85k. RR sport in top spec costs 115 k
£55-60k tops. That's what one topped out costs in the states
If the Range Rover Sport will RUN :=)

Aren't diesels being banned in cities in Europe, though?
@@shroomyesc no city bans euro 6 diesels
Good car

Keep up the good work
Is it me or range rover seems to have opened a designing car academy open to all brands, toyota and the likes
Beautiful background
U need a big pair off balls to spend that much money on a jeep one word depreciation my money always on a Toyota Land Cruiser 👍🇦🇺
Depreciation isn't the same everywhere. Where I'm from many Toyotas aren't worth much cause they're all rusted out
Did you really just say 'you can plug in a PlayStation'??? How on earth would you power it? I've never heard such nonsense...
By putting the power cable into one of the sockets in the car? How else. A car at this price (or even way cheaper cars) have household plug outlets.
Who in their right mind would pay £85k for a Jeep?
85K to throw down the toilet See it at the scrappy in 15 years.
This thing will become a money pit within 5 years, a land cruiser will be barely broken in
Excellent
4:40 That is simply unacceptable for a vehicle this expensive.
Amazing

Nice
Good video but bad car
Marvelous
The previous gen grand Cherokee looked so good... that this new one looks like a downgrade
Why make a big, fat, wide car look wider? Muhrkans 😂
85000 pounds starting price, wow
Great
I thought of fixing this car ... for family.... not worth it's wast
Compared to it's competitors it's too bad..
New terms of styling, Jeep has taken the designers to the pub, got them drunk, and told them to draw a Range Rover Sport ….
Pretty much , people like to off-road in luxury and Land Rover’s have a huge backlog now
guy in denim and t-shirt talking about refinement..k
it looks like a vauxhall crossland x
⚪IIIIIII⚪
At least 25-30K over priced.

Wow😊😊😊
so in summary…… It’s hugely overpriced and pretty crap
Fiat quality.
